The Jesus that left Nazareth for John the Baptist and the Jordan was not the same Jesus who came back.
We have to make ourselves as small as possible, so that God can be great in us. Taking up our cross is to take up God’s will for us and let go our will for ourselves.
God judges us according to one measure: our desire to know and do his will.
It is the simple joy of being alive forever, right this minute. It is the sense that whatever comes along, it’s just part of the glorious thrill ride of life God has given us, and don’t worry, we all end up safe at home in the end.
This is our testimony, an announcement that anyone, anyone at all, can have the joy of resurrection life.
When I die to myself, God will raise me into a life that is happy, joyous and free.
